Under the moonlight, the serious moonlight.
But here's the '78 Pig I just brought home today. Man I love this body style. What to do, what to do? It's a rolling chasis and seems to be in decent shape. I'll dig into it sometime soon when it cools down. I think it's 114 degrees outside. Here she is, brushed on paint and all.

Awesome. My Dad saw you towing this home and called to tell me..........too funny. Was this the one with the not finished Chevy small block install off CL?
Looks my my pigs twin brother with the gold and white paint job.:grinpimp:
 
I know what you're going to do with it....tow it up here to Berthoud, CO where it was only 88° F and we had a nice cooling afternoon shower. Then give it to me. Muahahahahaha
 
Howdy! Where are all these Piggies coming from?? Geez, it used to be less than half a dozen in the valley, and now about that many more have popped up just this year. Ya gunna bring it to CSC on Friday night?? By the way, Congrats!! John
 
Looks to be pretty much rust free! MUCH better than where I started at with mine.

John, I got this from a guy in Camp Verde. Made it almost all the way back to Glendale before I lost the tread on one of the trailer tires in the heat. If I make the meeting, it won't be in the pig, maybe I'll finally bring the Tercel out. If I had unlimitted disposable income and didn't have to work, I could have it done in four days. I think it will be road worthy in about four years. I still have to tear into it and see just what exactly I'll be working with. Enjoy, Billy

Not by AZ standards, but it's still pretty solid all the way around. :cheers:

You guys in Arizona would call a new car with brown paint "rusty". If you can dent the rockers instead of crush them their solid!!
 
Looks like a great platform to install an updated drivetrain :bounce: Also looks like the PO was going to install another type of motor judging by the welded in motor mounts. Is that roof rack welded to the top? What was welded to the frame, midway under the driver area? Not much bodywork to undertake, but you got a lot of PO mods to undo :meh: Keep us updated :wrench:

Howdy! I'm thinkin we should start talking it up. My rig is just a few hours away from being on the road again, at least for some test driving. I hope to drive it to the Friday Night Fever (hot Landcrusiers on hot asphalt) John
